I’m certainly not much of a singer, but Maddy and I certainly can play hard in the rain. 
Grace wasn’t real enthusiatic about the idea of playing in the rain, she was content with watching from the porch.
This motorbike you see is one like many that are prevelant in Thailand. It’s amazing how many people and things that can fit on one of these! :) Anyhow a friend has let me borrow this bike. NO the kids do not ride with me, just me solo.
Well, the other day the ignition switch was stuck, so I called my friend and he came on his little motorbike to check it out. Since we could not get it started, he “schooled” me on the way to tow a motorbike with another motorbike….you hold on to the arm of the person on the good bike and they pull you. He said this is a common practice in Italy (where He is from) and maybe it is, but I was a first timer and I thought it was a very interesting idea. :) We did make it home just fine, and my arm was a little tired, to say the least. :) Just a little tid-bit into life in Thailand, I know there will be more to come.
Later,
Rick
PS. This morning I went early to get the paper work so I can get a driver’s license, and I was all “gung-ho” to beat the crowds………..well apparently I beat everyone because no one was there………..today (May 8th) was a national holiday, and the office was closed. :) How fun is that!
We are so blessed to be able to chat with our parents and friends via Skype - just amazing and its FREE! It sure makes being so far away just a little bit easier!
